حَدَّثَنَا
ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ ، قََالَ : أَخْبَرَنَا
الْأَعْمَشُ ، عَنْ
أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ
أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قََالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
" ذَرُونِي مَا تَرَكْتُكُمْ ، فَإِنَّمَا هَلَكَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ بِسُؤَالِهِمْ ، وَاخْتِلَافِهِمْ عَلَى أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ ، فَإِذَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِشَيْءٍ ، فَخُذُوا مِنْهُ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ ، وَإِذَا نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ شَيْءٍ ، فَانْتَهُوا " .
It is narrated from the previous chain that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When I leave you regarding a matter, then you also leave me regarding it, because the nations before you were destroyed only due to excessive questioning and differing with their prophets. Whatever I forbid you from, abstain from it, and whatever I command you, do it to the best of your ability.
